Title

Evaluation of Collins WXR-700C-G Radar Performance During the MIST Project, July 24, 28 and 31, 1986, Huntsville, Alabama

Abstract

This report summarizes comparisons of the Collins WXR-700C-G and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Lincoln Laboratories FL2 Doppler radars. The intent of these comparisons is to evaluate the performance of the Collins radar as compared with the research quality MIT-FL2 ground based Doppler radar. The data used for the comparison were collected during the summer of 1986 in the Huntsville, Alabama area (Reinhart et.al., 1987).
